In today’s episode, I welcome Gaynor Ralls, a dedicated parent and Rhythmic Movement Training practitioner and instructor, to discuss her journey into primitive reflex integration and supporting children’s development.
Gaynor shares her personal experience with her son who faced developmental challenges and her seven-year pursuit for answers, including discovering the significance of retained primitive reflexes. Through training in Rhythmic Movement Training and other modalities, Gaynor transformed her son’s live and her own career to support children more effectively.
We explore the importance of ensuring children feel safe in their bodies, the challenges parents face in maintaining routines and also emphasize the vital role of play and movement in child development, urging parents to observe their children and integrate these activities into daily routines.
Tune in to learn how to support your child’s unique developmental needs through consistent at-home activities and professional guidance.
